    Help needed

    I pulled my water gauge today to find a partially broken center rod at the end of the center spiral rod, the tip on the bottom cross support is there but the rod is not staying on it. A small piece of the brass rod is barely holding on. Without having to buy a brand new one has anybody had any luck trying to fix this?

    Could it be soldered or brazed?

    Dan I’d love one. I will also see if someone can repair the tip

    I need a float for my water gauge. I suppose the chlorine dissolved the cork.

    My float is made of black plastic. The two in my fuel tanks are made of cork.
